Hi Claude,
Can you help me to control Lx with Qlab, please?
Thank you
Controlling lx with qlab
Re: Controlling lx with qlab
Are both QLab and LXConsole running on the same computer?
If so, you can look in LXConsole's OSC preferences/settings to find out what port it is set to listen on. Likely it is 17688.
In Qlab, create a network destination for address 127.0.0.1 (Or the IP address of the computer running LXConsole if it is not the same computer) and port 17688 (or whatever is port set in the OSC tab of the LXConsole Preferences window).
You should then be able to create a network cue and set it to this destination.
Provided File->External->OSC In is enabled in LXConsole, you can send a message "/cue/1/start" to trigger cue 1 and insure the connection is working.
This should work unless you've disabled /cue/ messages in LXConsole or cue 1 does not exist in LXConsole's cue list (change the 1 to a cue that does exist).

Hello Claude !!!
Just upgrade to Qlab 5 and having problems sending network cue.
What I'm trying to do is sending a start cue to LXConsole. Usually, since
LXConsole accept Qlab message, I would go to settings, put the address and port in destination , and choose Qlab message in type, put the number of the cue I want to start in cue number and choose start in the command.
Now I have to admit that I am a little bit lost .
Could you help me with that?
Thanks a lot
Pascal

Re: Controlling lx with qlab
Set the OSC address to /cue/n/start where n is the number of the cue you want to trigger. No OSC arguments are needed.
